The Measure of a Man

DISCLAIMER: This post was published on 30 Mar 2011, 9 pm - Competition Day of Singapore Youth Festival 2011 Central Judging (International Dance Category) - the day before the result was known.

Hi Dancers,

I just want to say that it has been an honour journeying with you for this SYF. And no matter what the result might be, understand that I've looked into your hearts and know that you have done your best. I am bursting with pride for you. I am looking forward to the next time you are going to move people through your love, passion and commitment.

I would like to dedicate this song to you. It is entitled, "The Measure of a Man" by 4Him. Take it to heart. All the best for tomorrow's result. God bless!

Yours sincerely,
Brother Bear

The Measure Of A Man
This world can analyze and size you up
And throw you on the scales
They can IQ you and run you thorugh
Their rigorous details
They can do their best to rate you
And they'll place you on their charts
And then back it up with scientific smarts

But there's more to what you're worth
Than what their human eyes can see

CHORUS
Oh I say the measure of a man
Is not how tall you stand
How wealthy or intelligent you are
'Cause I found out the measure of a man
God knows and understand
For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart
And what's in the heart defines
The measure of a man

Well you can doubt your worth
And search for who you are and where you stand
But God made you in His image
When He formed you in His hands
And He looks at you with mercy
And He sees you through His love
You're His child and that will always be enough

For there's more to what you're worth
Than you could ever comprehend

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
You can spend your life pursuing physical perfection
But there's so much more than ever meets the eye
For God looks through the surface
And He defines your worth by what is on the inside

REPEAT CHORUS
[ These are The Measure Of A Man Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com/ ]

to sir, with love.

OPEN HOUSE IS FINALLY OVER!

Once again, I am the only one updating this blog! You guys honestly need to on your computer and post something here! :)

I just wanted to say Thank You for all the help! Without every one of you, the Open House would not be successful. A round of applause to our dear Sec 1s who did tremendously well eventhough it is their first time doing such event (they performed repeteadly!). Molto Bene Ballerini.

Don't forget to say your thank you's to Nicole for the amazing Noticeboard Decor as well as the friendship bands! A cheer for Alphonsine who did great for the presentation despite the fact that she only saw the powerpoint today! :D A hug to Rachel Ho for buying our snacks! Give your sweetest smiles to our dear Seniors: Nathaynia & Serene who supported us (though they came late!) Hehehehehehehehehe.

ONCE AGAIN, THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR BEING THERE!

just a reflected note, do remember what Mr Michael told us during the de-brief as well as what Ms Lo Pui Sze said (about our energy and will!). ^^ Always remember that Through Work Achieve Success, let's strive together to get that GOLD WITH HONOURS next year! Let's make our teachers, school, ourselves, parents and Mr Danny Tan proud!

I shall see you this coming Dance Camp then!
Till then, have a great rest and recharge yourselves. :D

with love,
Dianne Mae

ps/ Italia people, see you at Dhoby Ghaut MRT station bt 9.30am!
pps/ Don't forget your duties that Mr Michael has allocated us alright?

Buona Sera Ballerini!

I just noticed that no one seems to care about this blog of ours? As a matter of fact, I only see seniors posting! This is after all an AES DANCE ENSEMBLE blog, so you Ballerini should at least post right, especially the Sec 01s. ^^

Let me get down to business first.
As we all know, we have new dance schedule so here you go:

25 and 26 Nov - 12pm to 6pm @ ODT
27 Nov - 9am to 3pm @ school

A gentle reminder to all OPEN HOUSE ICs, are you all ready to show to Mr Michael the finishing product? The Pamphlets, Decorations, Video & Performance? Do remember that Open House is this SATURDAY! So here's the deal...

On 26 Nov, be in school at 8am for our Open House Dry Run.
All hair extensions, eyebrow piercing etc should be removed by then!
We will be in school until 10 - 11 am afterwhich we will go together to ODT.

While on 27 Nov, be in school by 8am as well!
Remember, do not be late or we will have to do the DANCE PUNISHMENT again!

Hmm, I think that should be all for now.
Feeling sleepy! Ohs, I have already created the Italy Dance BLOG.
More details tomorrow okay? URL is: www.aesdancers-italia2010.blogspot.com

see you all domani then,
Dianne MAE
